And we barely won. In what should have been a 40 state landslide, we had a commie pinko; notorious traitor take us to the wire in Ohio. Besides are the Republicans in Washington acting like they won?
If you're going to be a pessimist, at least be accurate.
The RATS tried to make it close, but it was a substantial victory all the way in a state that Soros was pouring money into.
Get a grip.
BS! If you call 168,000 vote margin "barely". That's how much Bush won in Ohio before the feckless Dummies went in there to make sure it was closer.
1. A win is a win...doesn't matter what the score was.
2. Ground games never seem to be going anywhere until you score. But they are much, much less risky than passing games. Especially when the game involves the future of MILLIONS OF PEOPLE.
3. You can't have it both ways—first you say we didn't win by much, and then you say we're not acting like we won. We'll I say we're acting like we won, but with the very real understanding that we didn't win by a landslide and we are going to have to choose our battles very carefully.
4. Tossing away political capital on something everyone ALL READY KNOWS HAPPENED and has "shocking-revelation-fatigue" about is just plain stupid. (We should have at least learned that from the Clintons.)
For crying out loud...you're the one who wants them to push back harder! But we withhold our money, pout over the fact that the administration doesn't agree with us all the time and tell the pollsters and the media that we're fed up.
The polls drop because we're dissatisfied with the lack of "perfection as we identify it." Then, when the administration is a little timid we just can't figure out why. You'd never send a QB into the game without the rest of the team. For Pete's sake, they're our guys—BACK THEM UP A LITTLE. Give them a chance to have enough support to override the Durbins, the ACLU, the MSM and then let's see what happens.
Quite frankly, I'm embarrassed by my party right now. Not by the leaders because they are pretty predictable, but I am disappointed by the rank and file. What ever happened to "when the going gets tough the tough suck it up and get going."
When did we become the whiny, temper tantrum, freak-out-because-we-can't-have-it-all-right-this-minute, chicken-little party? Keep this up and we will loose everything. We should be ashamed.
